This is the stovetop version. I don't like to cook more than 1kg of fruit at a time on the stovetop, as the more fruit you add, the longer the cooking time. I prefer to use a heavy based cast iron pan.
Ingredients
1kg strawberries, washed and hulled
500gm sugar
1 lemon, zest and juice
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a heavy based pot over a medium to low heat. Stir regularly to prevent the jam sticking on the bottom.
Simmer gently for approximately 1 hour or until jam thickens.
While still hot, pour jam into sterilised jars.
Seal immediately.
Store in a cool place out of direct sunlight for up to 6 months.
Makes approximately 4 cups.
